    Turkey Time is coming.

    The frozen turkeys are now starting to show up in the supermarkets. Wal-Mart has the Jenny O birds for $0.84/LB. Not bad. I think the Butterball birds are $0.97/LB. We just got a 14.8 LB Jenny O earlier this week and it will go on the rotisserie in the Performer later today. Prices should...

    Labor Day Weekend Charcoal Sales?

    I did the same. Picked up 3 twin packs on Labor Day Weekend so that will be it until it goes on sale again. The first sale is usually around Easter.

    Labor Day Weekend Charcoal Sales?

    Hello all, I just got the Costco sales flier that goes from 8/25 to 9/21 and I didn't see any ads for K-Pro or the Kirkland Charcoal. Not surprising since if it is going to go on sale, it will likely be for just the Labor Day Weekend period. I'm going to Costco that Friday so I'll report back...

    Anyone tried the Costco charcoal briqs?

    FYI. I was in Costco yesterday and they did not have K-Pro on sale. It was the usual price of $22.99. Maybe it will go on sale for Memorial Day Weekend?

    Kingsford Pro charcoal at Costco

    I was going to pick up some of the Kirkland charcoal today, but didn't have enough room in the car since I had to get a bunch of Miracle gro, manure, etc. So will probably get 4 bags next Fri as I want to give it an extended tryout this summer.

    Kingsford Pro charcoal at Costco

    I tried a bag of the Kirkland charcoal last year and it worked just fine. I was going to get more, but when I went again, they were out of stock.

    Kingsford Pro charcoal at Costco

    They are. I was in Costco a couple weeks ago and they had it in stock.

    Kingsford Pro charcoal at Costco

    It was still on sale as of Thursday. I think it ends tomorrow. Not to worry as they'll probably have it on sale again in time for the Memorial Day Weekend...

    It's time to break out one of the most important grilling tools I have.

    My headlamp!! With it now getting dark at 5:15, it's only going to get worse until we get to Winter Solstice. I can't wait for Winter Solstice because then you know that the days WILL be getting longer, and then in about 2 1/2 months I can put away the damm headlamp. Though the one silver...

    No political posts and an apology

    Thanks Chris. It's nice to have a "safe" place where we can discuss everything BBQ and grilling related, and be free from politics. Much appreciated!

    How Right- or Left-Handed Are You?

    My youngest son is like this. In T-Ball he batted and throwed left-handed. Then in Farm division (ages 6-7) he said he wanted to start throwing and batting right-handed because he felt more comfortable doing that. He did and never looked back. He began his freshman yr in HS in late August...

    Time to clean your gas grill

    Didn't clean the grill last weekend, but got it done today. Boy, did it need it! Couldn't believe how much stuff had accumulated in the drip tray. If I had put that off much longer, it would have started to become a grease fire hazard. The grates, warming rack, flavorizer bars and the drip...

    Any charcoal sales going on this weekend?

    It must be limited to whatever stock they have left, because I went to Costco today and the K-Pro was MIA. None to be found anywhere. I know they usually run out by mid Sept so it was surprising to see it gone this early. And yes, they're already starting to put their Xmas stuff out 🙄. I...

    Any charcoal sales going on this weekend?

    I'm going to Costco today so I'll report back here if they're running that sale. HD has the same deal on KBB as Lowe's, which isn't a deal at all. Haven't seen any deals elsewhere, so it's going to be Costco or bust 😅
